Company Summary

Forest Devices is developing AlphaStroke, a device that helps first responders in early detection of both Stroke and Large Vessel Occlusions (LVO), which is a severe stroke with a care pathway available at far fewer hospitals. AlphaStroke will improve outcomes by decreasing time-to-treatment for these patients while also increasing the number of patients eligible for the time-limited, gold standard-of-care interventions.
